MODELING STRATEGY
• Processes, constituents, and sources to be modeled
• Watershed segmentation (spatial and temporal data)
• Channel segmentation and tributary area
• Human impacts
• Alternatives to be analyzed

Segmentation –
Land Segment -
Channel Segment -
• Division of watershed into discrete land and channel segments to analyze watershed behavior
• Portions of the watershed that demonstrate similar hydrologic and water quality response
• PLS = pervious land segment ILS = impervious land segment
• Sections of a stream channel with similar morphology and hydraulic behaviorRCHRES = channel segment

FINAL TASKS -
1. Tabulate land use categories tributary to each reach.2. Aggregate, as needed, to define PLSs and ILSs.3. Evaluate & assign parameter values based on conditions (soils,
topography, cropping, management, etc.) in each segment.

STUDY OBJECTIVES
• Develop a watershed model as a framework for quantifying nutrient sources and loadings to LIS from Connecticut watersheds
• Evaluate the potential for nutrient load reduction from various BMP implementation levels under both current and future growth scenarios
• Provide a spreadsheet compilation of nutrient loads to LIS and modeled scenarios as a simplified planning tool
